This hard drive is well built & appears to function OK but my gripe with it is that it is described on the Website as portable whereas,in my opinion,it is only transportable ie. it can be carried in a shoulder bag but not in a pocket unlike some other 'portable' drives.The box is labelled as a desktop drive & nowhere described as portable, but a recently purchased Seagate 2TB drive is less than half the size & can easily fit in a trouser or jacket pocket.
